You could please find the Keyboard Shortcuts for Outlook in the below link,

https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Keyboard-shortcuts-for-Outlook-3cdeb221-7ae5-4c1d-8c1d-9e63216c1efd#bkmk_basicnav&ID0EAABAAA 16,_2013

The keyboard shortcuts listed in this link works well with both screen reader ON or OFF.

For sighted keyboard users, the basic navigation for "switching between the views like mail view, calendar view, tasks view, contacts, etc." are the easy references. Once the user lands in any view, the standards keys (Tab, Arrow) works to get through related menus and sub-menus. There is an important key ALT+H that shows all the shortcuts for each of the options in the entire menu bar.

Hope this helps!

Thanks,
Poornima.
